Fumed Silica & Metal Oxide Dispersions
Product Overview
AERODISP® products incorporate a range of fumed silica and metal oxides into both aqueous and non-aqueous media. There are options available with regards to the solids content, pH and the surface charge of the dispersions. This allows for their use in a wide variety of coating systems.
Most grades have a low viscosity and don’t thicken systems like the powder AEROSIL® grades do. As a consequence, the formulator can achieve high solid levels whilst still maintaining a workable viscosity. This can give significant improvements in scratch resistance, anti-slip, anti-blocking and pigment/emulsion stability.
Cationic and alumina grades are very popular for high-quality inkjet paper coatings as they are able to fix dyes and pigments, leading to improvements in colour gamut, print uniformity, print resolution and smudge/rub/water resistance.
There are also some speciality grades such as the AERODISP® G 1220 which is used as an anti-blocking agent in PET films. AERODISP® W 1244 is used in the intumescent, silicate-based, layer incorporated into fire-resistant glass.
